23. Chapter XXIII
It was true that Qi Qiang wanted to try his best to win over Ou Ren, but there was definitely no need to fight for this, so he quickly made a decision: if it really doesn't work, he will give up this batch of goods!
Anyway, he has done his duty to do this, and he is very worthy of Eugène. The top priority now is to get rid of the responsibility and not let people say that the goods were lost in his hands.
Carpenter Tan came back wiping his sweat after negotiating with the other side, "Boss Qi, today's matter may be a little troublesome." β
Qi Qiang calmly nodded, "You say." β
"Mr. Ou Ren ordered this batch of goods from Boss Rong in Inner Mongolia, and the Frenchman who introduced Mr. Ou Ren to Boss Rong at that time was very wealthy, and it is said that he was an old customer of Boss Rong, and he had bought a lot of valuable things in his hands. Therefore, Boss Rong looks at the face of this old guest, and he has to hand over Mr. Ou Ren's goods to you completely. It's just ......"
Qi Qiang was already a little mentally prepared, and his tone was calm, "It's just what?" β
Carpenter Tan seemed to be considering what to say, and hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Unfortunately, a famous artifact was found in this batch of goods ordered by Mr. Owen. β
Qi Qiang frowned, "Artifact? "So what, a lot of this kind of goods are dug out of the soil, and it's not normal to have a few artifacts mixed in it.
Carpenter Tan shook his head, "It's not a ghost weapon, it's a famous weapon, a famous name." β
Tan Xixi, who was on the side, opened his mouth to explain, "This is jargon, that is, this thing is famous in the industry, just like the "Lanting Collection Preface" buried under the head of Li Shimin, Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, although no one has been able to dig it out, but it is famous, and there are few people who don't know it, this kind of thing is called a famous device." β
When Carpenter Tan heard this, he couldn't help but immediately look at Tan Xixi, when Qi Qiang introduced his daughter's identity as an assistant on this trip, he felt that something was wrong, Qi Qiang didn't have any paperwork to do this trip, what was the use of bringing an assistant? Now it's even more and more unlikely!
It's just that now is really not the time to ask, so he suppressed the doubts in his heart and then said to Qi Qiang, "That famous weapon was released by the Huo family on the road decades ago, and everyone who sold their face knew the news and had to report it to them." So after the Huo family got the news, they immediately found Boss Rong and asked him to resell this famous weapon to the Huo family, Boss Rong had no choice, so he invited everyone here, and prepared to give you the goods first, and then you yourself will have a face-to-face interview with the people of the Huo family. β
Qi Qiang snorted angrily, "Why can't we talk about it, we have to be brought to this ghost place to talk, it is obvious that it is relying on the strength of the people to suppress me, I have to give it, and if I don't give it, I have to give it!" β
At this time, if he opened his mouth to persuade Qi Qiang to agree, he was afraid that he would misunderstand that he was colluding with those people to calculate him, so he had to stop talking, but he was secretly anxious in his heart, thinking that if this young and vigorous person refused for a while, he would have to persuade him even if he was suspicious, otherwise no one would be able to please him today!
Fortunately, his daughter immediately came forward as if she could hear his heart.
Tan Xixi pulled Qi Qiang, "Give the goods to them, in fact, even if the Huo family doesn't come forward, Boss Rong will find other ways to detain this thing, after all, the price of the famous weapon is far from the money paid by Ou Ren, and the loss of this transaction is too great." β
Qi Qiang secretly scolded Ou Ren in his heart for not knowing what shit luck he had, he could buy a famous weapon by buying a batch of stalls and playing around, and he was not prepared at all, only to see that he was snatched away, and he was so frightened that he was here for him, and he was distressed.
With a calm face, he took a few people over with Carpenter Tan, first collected the goods according to the catalog that Ou Ren had taken pictures of when he was shopping before, and then Boss Rong took the box with the famous utensils to talk to the people of the Huo family about the transfer fee.
Boss Rong is a middle-aged man who is not amazing, with a slightly bald head and a beer belly, he looks like a middle-aged neighbor uncle who has made a fortune, but he is not in a hurry to speak, his voice is not high but he has a majesty, his eyes are even sharper, and he swept over at a glance, Qi Qiang actually felt a chill on his back, and immediately knew that this person was not easy to provoke, and swallowed back the accusation that came to his mouth, thinking that a good man would not suffer immediate losses, and today he did not expect that he would bring someone from the Huo family, the Huo family has an overseas black/social/social background, although the main forces are in Southeast Asia, But Qi Qiang also admired their name for a long time, and knew that he could not be offended.
The leader of the Huo family today is called James. Huo, although he is still an Oriental face, his speech and demeanor have been very Westernized, and he said to Qi Qiang in a very blunt Chinese, "Brother Rong told me that Mr. Ou Ren spent 500,000 yuan to buy this batch of things, and I will also give you 500,000, but as long as this one piece, the rest is what I gave you." β
Even if Qi Qiang kept reminding himself to endure it, he couldn't help but darken his face when he heard this, "Mr. Huo, this is too embarrassing, this batch of things is not mine, I just came to receive the goods on behalf of my friends." As we all know, buying stalls is similar to gambling stones, everyone is playing with a small amount of money to gamble / color / head, my friend obviously this money Bo to, but can not get the color head, I have been difficult to explain to him. Now that you're only willing to pay the original price, then I really can't do this for him. β
James didn't know if it was because of his personality or if he really had a very high status in the Huo family, his expression was very arrogant, he looked at people with slanted eyes, and his tone was very cold and hard, "One million, no more." β
Qi Qiang sneered, "Mr. Huo, I accompanied my friend to the antique market in City C a few months ago, and it cost two million to buy an antique screen casually, do you think it is appropriate to buy a famous artifact from us for only one million?" Even if we are not picky, there must be a transfer fee worthy of this famous object! β
The bodyguard behind James heard his tone a little rushed, and immediately stepped forward with angry eyebrows, "Boy, how do you talk, look for death!" β
Qi Qiang is usually a person with a bit of value outside, and he has never been so angry, so he immediately glared back.
Boss Rong spoke like the old man, "Alas, don't be so angry young people, let's discuss it carefully." "It seems to be reconciling, but in fact it is pulling the shelf, this young man's angry statement is definitely not referring to James. Huo, but talking about Qi Qiang.
Tan Xixi looked at something wrong from afar, raised her hand and grabbed the long backpack on the driver's body and carried it on her back, she moved too fast, and waited for the driver to react and shouted, "Hey-hey-what are you doing??" At that time, she had already strode towards Qi Qiang, who was getting stiffer and stiffer and had a very bad face.
Tan Bei, a second-year teenager, and the two guys who led the way from Tan Carpenter's side stood a little bit ahead, and Tan Xixi unceremoniously raised his hand and slapped him on the back of the head when he passed by, "Go back to the car and sit!" β
Tan Bei was startled, "Hey! β
Tan Xixi ignored him anymore and walked straight over, Tan Bei was suddenly taken aback, gritting his teeth in anger, but he didn't dare to chase after him.
Tan Xixi walked over and stood beside Qi Qiang, his face did not change, he slowly glanced around, and asked him, "What do you say?" β
Qi Qiang actually had a feeling that he had more backbones, and immediately replied, "Mr. Huo is only willing to pay one million to buy this thing." β
Tan Xixi nodded, and suddenly said to Boss Rong, "One million is not impossible, but can you let us see what this is, and we can explain it to Mr. Ou Ren when we go back." β
Boss Rong, James, and the two of their subordinates were suddenly a little surprised to see the woman on Qi Qiang's side, and when they saw this woman asking Qi Qiang in a grand manner, and they could call the shots when they opened their mouths, and they were thinking together that this was the main thing, and the man was a deputy.
Women are generally rare on this kind of occasion, but whenever one appears, it must be a powerful character, so Boss Rong did not snub her, and politely refused, "Everything has been taken and booked, you can look at the photos." β
Tan Xixi shook his head, "How can you see it clearly in the photo, and please don't embarrass us who do things for others." β
Boss Rong hesitated and looked at James.
Tan Xixi said again, "We just want to go back and explain to Mr. Ou Ren clearly, there is no other meaning, we can't snatch it away after a glance, everyone is happy to go back after the handover, this place is not in front of the village, there is no store in the back, and if we continue to rub it off, everyone will have to rush to the night on the way back." β
James bared Bai Sensen's teeth and smiled at Tan Xixi, "Since this young lady is so happy, then I'll show you." In fact, although this is a famous artifact, not many people can recognize it, and we have made it clear to you for the sake of safety, otherwise when Mr. EugΓ¨ne chooses it and loses interest, he will definitely sell it if he finds someone to buy it from him. So don't be afraid of the lack of money, if I buy it like that, it is estimated that 500,000 yuan will not be used. β
Qi Qiang scolded in his heart, you just blow it, it's really a good thing Ou Ren will definitely be able to see it after careful identification, and it will be 500,000? Don't even think about buying famous utensils for 50 million!
Rong Laoda's subordinates opened a square box, only to see a mottled and old Buddha statue lying inside, about 20 centimeters high, standing upright, stepping barefoot on the lotus platform, the Buddha statue was wearing a collarless and shoulder-style robe, the robe was attached to the body as if it was wet with water, and the clothes were piled up with layers of folds on the chest.
Qi Qiang didn't see the difference between this Buddha statue and the Buddha statues bought in front of the temple on the old streets everywhere, and was slightly disappointed, thinking that this is a famous weapon? I really don't see anything out of the ordinary.
Tan Xixi's eyes widened slightly after seeing the bronze gilt Buddha statue in the box, and he stared at it motionless for five minutes, and finally exhaled a long breath and raised his head, "It's really a good thing." β
James raised his eyebrows, and Boss Rong was also a little curious, "You can see what this is by looking at it with your eyes like this." β
Tan Xixi's tone was deep, "According to records, during the reign of Liang Tianjian, King Funan paid tribute to Emperor Liang several times, and the Tianzhu Tan Buddha in the tribute was very favored by the emperor, if I am not mistaken, this is likely to be the Tianzhu Tan Buddha." β
James and Boss Rong glanced at each other, didn't say yes, but didn't say no, they didn't say it together, they didn't mention it together, James asked people to transfer one million to Qi Qiang's account in person, and then left first.
His bodyguard, who had glared at Qi Qiang just now, suddenly raised his hand before getting into the car, and a short/black hole gun/muzzle was pointed at Qi Qiang.
Tan Xixi had the same conditioned reflex, and the moment he saw the man's shoulder move, he knocked down Qi Qiang, rolled on the spot, rolled away for several meters, and then shouted at Rong Lao before he had time to stand up, "Mr. Rong, what's going on!" β
Boss Rong didn't bother to toss around like this, the purpose was not to make things bigger, so he stepped forward to stop him, "James! β
James disagreed, "Don't worry, I didn't want to kill him, I just gave him a small lesson." With a wave of his hand at the bodyguard, the man shrank into the car.
His group drove seven or eight jeeps, and slipped away in a huge line, with bursts of loess behind the rear of the cars.
Tan Xixi was pressed under Qi Qiang and was in pain, "Hey, I said that if you don't fall unconscious, you can get up first, I'm going to be crushed to death by you!" β
Qi Qiang was pounced on in a daze, and then rolled on the ground a few times covered in dust, and finally pressed a fleshy and elastic body before he stopped dizzily, and the first feeling after stopping was not fear or anger. Instead, I was thinking, it turned out that she was not only comfortable to pinch, but also felt great when pressing! In comparison, those skinny beauties who have dated before are too!
